PHOENIX VIDEOS
First up, nothing anyone cares about. I just wanted to log these videos from Youtube so I don't forget about them later.
In the words of my girlfriend, "You are such a fangirl".
I suppose so. Out of nowhere last night, I was feeling particular like looking up Nick/Maya fan videos. And now "Hey There Delilah" is going to be stuck in my head forever. SIGH.
I also found a Nick/Maya video set to an Avril Lavigne song. ..... No thank you.
Kathleen is heading out to Germany for the summer in less than a week. I've known about this for a few months now, but it was one of those things I hadn't thought was actually going to arrive. Heh. But she scored a big internship, so she's going to be out Germany way from May to August. That puts on crimp on SO MANY of my summer plans. But...I'll be able to save some money (dating is expensive-ish; especially for all the fun summer stuff I wanted to do) for when she comes back. Hopefully everything will be okay...she'll end up in Germany for half our of whole relationship by the time she returns...so odd to think about it like that. Three months here, three months there. It feels like we've been dating forever, so...I am suddenly full of foreboding. Three months can feel like an eternity. Humph.
Hm. I have a cramp right behind my kneecap. How can I thwart this?
My current addiction in life is Facebook's LivingSocial application, allowing me to make a Top 5 List for any and every subject under the sun. I've found that my favorite thus far is "Things That I Hate That Everyone Else Seems To Love". I've done FOUR TOP 5 LISTS OF IT. So far, it includes such other-people-renowned things as: Movies Having Anything to Do With Judd Apatow, Metallica, chuck palahniuk books, Pittsburgh Steelers, Ham, Family Guy, libertarians/libertarianism, 30 Rock, The Beatles, Tattoos, Alcohol, Pink Floyd, Lost, The South, Cable News, Sauerkraut, Lord of The Rings, Patriotism, Music concerts, and Caffeine. I'm probably not done with that one yet, though. I could keep doing it forever.
I've actually broken 70; I've made 70 separate Top 5 lists on Facebook. Favorite movies, favorite fruits, favorite TV shows, favorite episodes OF TV shows, top fears...I tell you: if reducing my life to a series of structured lists and pictures is wrong, I never want to be right.
I've always had a weird affinity for making lists and ranking things; I have no idea where it came from, but I have enjoyed it as long as I can remember. It must be why I have always been such a big fan of online message boards. "You want to rank the top 10 quarterbacks in the NFL? OKAY! You want to discuss favorite TV series? WAIT FOR ME". I am a huge mark for organized lists. I mean...seriously. I RANKED my TOP 15 ENTRIES LAST YEAR. Remember? I actually DID THAT.
Every time I recall that entry, I miss that I don't use LiveJournal more often. I have no idea why, after a year and a half of updating with great frequency, I can never find anything to really say anymore. It's Depressionville. Kathleen and I still do funny things; I still talk about crazy stuff at work with Tina and Heather and Chip; I still wax sillosophical (I made that up...silly philosophy. My life in a nutshell).
No news in regards to crazy landlady, which could go either way. If she was actually trying to harass money out of me, I figure she'd keep coming after me. But she's not, so she may actually be talking to her lawyer about going to court. I don't know...I really don't want to go to court. And I don't TRUST this lady, so I have no idea what she could be up to.
We'll see.
